EXPOSE THE TRUTH 4: "Let My People
Go!" This document gives the report about the events that
took place after the August 29th meeting. Community
meeting on August 29.
The August 29th meeting with the Moscow Board finished at 3pm Moscow
time. At 6pm the SU team had a meeting with the Moscow Group, where they
announced that the Board had been dismissed and asked for volunteers to stand
for a new Board. Note that the decision to dismiss 5 of the 6 Board members was
made from 3pm to 6pm Moscow time which is 5am to 8am Montana time. That means
that it was the decision of the members of the SU team, and CUT/TSL Board of
Directors knew about this decision and approved/endorsed it only after
it was already implemented. Or if the leadership would claim that
this decision was approved by the CUT/TSL Board of Directors, then the CUT/TSL
Board of Directors had approved it before the SU team came to
Russia. Ritual
of forgiveness, Novena to El Morya.
The first thing we initiated in our Group after the August 29 and 30 events,
was a 14-day Ritual of Forgiveness, that we started on the September 6 during
the Saint Germain Service. About 70 people participated in this ritual in our
Moscow Group, sending the Violet Flame to our fellow Keepers in Moscow and to
the SU team, as well as doing judgment and dweller calls and Astreas, that are
a part of this Ritual. The Group also did the Novena to El Morya, asking our
Guru to help find a place for our Saint Germain services instead of the one we
lost at the end of August. The
new beginnings. The
difficulties glued the whole Group together. In fact we never felt such a sense
of unity, brotherhood, understanding, peace and harmony in the Moscow group, as
we have now after the August 29 events. As it is said, no great loss without
some small gain. In one day all the complainers were miraculously gone from our
Group, all the worrying in the members was stopped. The members of the Group,
including those, who were passive in the past, felt that they are important and
counted in the Group and stepped forward offering their service. God gave us a
new and good place for the decree services along with a very nice permanent
room, that we call Lanello's Room, where the members of the Group are receiving
the beginners, explaining the ABC's of the Teachings, watching video dictations
and lectures. A whole bunch of new decree leaders stepped forward to lead the
decree services. Each Saint Germain service became a red-letter day. There are about ninety people in our Group, who
regularly attend our services. Unfortunately there are quite a few people
from our former Group who stopped attending any services at all. They do not
go to the other Group in Moscow as they do not like what is going on there. They
do not come to our Group as they believed the ministers who said that
our Group is not any more under the sponsorship of the Great White Brotherhood.
We know also that there are quite a few people who joined the Group under the
new appointed Board for the same reason: they believe that God and the Masters
are sponsoring only that group, which is supported by the ministers and the
Church. The same process is going on in the many Groups in Russian
speaking lands, where the groups have been divided into two and started
conducting the separate decree services. The SU team explains the dismissal of the Moscow Board
members. There were
a few main points that were brought to the attention of Keepers during the
meetings in Moscow and the SU Classes in Tuapse and Kiev in order to explain
the dismissal of the Moscow Board members (a few people gave a written witness
of what took place on different meetings/SU Classes and we are giving the
translation of the main points from their stories): 1) &nb
sp;
Anger
of Ketino during the meeting Neroli: The aggressiveness of Ketino during
the meeting is a sign of the problems with the throat chakra. This is not
acceptable for a leader of the group. (witness of Marina V., Tuapse
Class) Linda: Ketino was very aggressive and
angry, that is not acceptable for a Keeper and especially for the President of
the Group and an Elder. (witness of Antonina N., Kiev Class) 2) &nb
sp;
Financial and other infractions, that were
reported to RHQ Neroli and Linda: Many complaints were coming to Montana from the
members of the Moscow Group. Some financial infractions of the leaders of the
Moscow Group were reported in written form to the Church leadership. The money
that was given as a donation was not brought by Ketino to Montana till this
time. (witness of Marina V., Tuapse Class) Linda and Neroli: Montana never got the money that you [the Keepers in
Russia] are donating to the Church (witness of Ekaterina G., Tuapse
Class) Ministers:
Ketino was dismissed for her behavior and for financial infractions (witness of
Ludmila, Kiev Class) Linda: Montana received the information in
written form about the infractions of the Board of the Moscow Group. It
includes the absence of licenses on some books and other materials of SU Press.
(witness of Antonina N., Kiev Class) 3) &nb
sp;
Unwillingness
to invite the ministers of the Church, unwillingness to speak with
them Q:
Is it possible for all the members of the group and old Board and the new Board
and the representatives from Montana to come together to a meeting and discuss
the situation in the group? Linda:
Ketino didn't answer the many attempts to contact her, does not open the door,
do not answer the phone. (witness of Galina N., Moscow meeting) Neroli, Linda:
The Moscow Board was refusing to meet with Church representatives, did not
invite the ministers to conduct Classes, felt impossible the official
registration of the Church in Russia, when the attorney affirms the opposite.
(witness of Marina V., Tuapse Class) Neroli:
The Board of the Moscow Group refused to meet with SU team and the meeting was
held despite their will. (witness of Ekaterina G., Tuapse Class) Linda: The representatives from Montana
were planning to come to Russia, as they were invited by Rostov and
Dnepropetrovsk Study Groups and asked Ketino if they can start their trip with
a visit to Moscow. Ketino was delaying their coming, as she felt some fear.
Thus they came without her invitation. They called her from a hotel in Moscow,
but Ketino said she does not want to meet with them. The ministers were
insisting on the meeting, but Ketino agreed to meet only under her conditions.
(Witness of Antonina N., Kiev Class) 4) &nb
sp;
It
is not recommended to use the decree tapes with Andrew Blumenschein
5) &nb
sp;
It
is not recommended to use the decree tapes with the voice of Ketino (including
the audio and video lectures with Russian voice over and decrees in
Russian) Linda:
Do not use the decree tapes with Andrew. Do not use also the decree tapes with
Ketino and the tapes with Mother's lectures [where Ketino is doing voice over].
(witness of Ekaterina G., Tuapse Class) Ministers
demanded to withdraw from circulation all the decree tapes with Andrew and
Ketino. (Witness of Lidia L., Kiev Class) Linda:
Do not use the tapes with the voice of Andrew Blumenchein and the voice of
Ketino because they are not any more the chalices of Light. (Witness of Ludmila
U., Moscow meeting) Witness
of Galina N., Moscow meeting: Linda:
All the tapes with the voice of Andrew and the tapes with the voice of Ketino
have to be withdrawn from the use, as Ketino's voice has old vibrations. The
tapes with the new vibrations are needed. Faina (Moscow
group member): Is it possible for some time to use the tapes with the voice of
Ketino, as we do not have any other tapes? Linda: You can use these tapes
temporally/for some time. 6) &nb
sp;
The
Moscow Group under the leadership of Ketino would not be permitted to patch for
the conference Linda: The group under the leadership of
Ketino will not be allowed to patch for the Harvest conference. (Witness
of Galina N., Moscow meeting) 7) &nb
sp;
The
Moscow group (with former Board) has lost the sponsorship of the Great White
Brotherhood (GWB). Only the Group with the new appointed Board is sponsored by
the GWB. The mantle
was taken from Ketino. Linda:
There is a Hierarchy of Light. CUT is a part of this Hierarchy and is sponsored
by the GWB. The former Board through their disobedience
went out of the Church. Thus they (and the group of people with them)
are no more under the Hierarchy. Only the newly appointed Board and the people
in this group are under the sponsorship of the Brotherhood. (Witness of Ludmila
U., Moscow meeting) Linda: Mother gave Ketino the mantle for some term. And during this time
she had to pass certain tests on the 12 lines of the Cosmic Clock. But she did
not pass them. The time of testing for Ketino is over and the time when the
mantle worked is over. Now the mantle is taken from her and we all feel it. She
did not bend the knee and we are sorry for that. (Witness of Galina N., Moscow
meeting) Moscow Board never refused to meet with Church
representatives.
There were two meetings with the Moscow Board planned originally, but after the
dismissal of the 5 Board members was announced in the August 29 community
meeting the SU team canceled the August 30 meeting with the Board. As all our
communications with the Church leaders were through e-mail, we can affirm that
neither before August 29, nor after it the Moscow Board never refused to have a
meeting with the Church representatives. Here is what our Board wrote to Peter,
when we were planning the August 29 and August 30 meetings: July 20, 2003: "We are happy to
meet with you here in Moscow on your way to Tuapse." July 21, 2003: "First of all we
want to reaffirm that our Board is happy to meet with you here in Moscow on
your way to Tuapse." After canceling the August 30 meeting, we did not get
any single proposal from the SU team to have another meeting with them,
though three members of the SU team stayed in Moscow and never attended the SU
Classes in Tuapse or Kiev. A meeting with us at any day could have been arranged
easily (they just had to send us an e-mail or fax in order to set up the
meeting with the former Board). Moscow
Board asks for the meeting with Church Board. On September 15 we sent a letter to the Board of
Directors, asking "for an immediate meeting between the Church Board and the
former Moscow Board" in order "to clear up all issues that are a problem." Here
is this letter in its entirety. "Dear Board of the Church Universal and
Triumphant and Summit Lighthouse, As you know, serious
events are occurring here in the Russian-speaking lands. Many Keepers of the
Flame here are asking the question, what has the Moscow Board done to cause the
American leadership to so discredit all of their work? Who can we trust? Where
has the goodwill gone? Why has the American leadership suddenly turned against
those who were entrusted to run the organization in the Russian-speaking lands?
Who shall we turn to when we have a problem in our groups? Why did the American
leadership resort to such drastic measures without trying to solve the problems
more constructively and harmoniously? We
cannot believe that you know the full story and we trust in your Holy Christ
Selves to listen before further action takes place here. In the name of Jesus
and Kuan Yin, we look to you for leadership and for a listening heart. We, the former Board of
the Moscow Study Group, your brothers and sisters on the path, do hereby
request your immediate help and assistance to halt or delay the full
implementation of the decisions made by the Church's representatives here in
Russia. These decisions are affecting not just the Moscow Study Group but
dozens of Groups and thousands of Keepers throughout the Russian-speaking
lands. We ask for an immediate
meeting between the Church Board and ourselves to review the emotional meeting
that we had with the Church's representatives, as well as the events prior to
and following that meeting. As fellow servants of Saint Germain and El Morya,
faithfully serving in the field, we have no other recourse but to have the
Church Board hear our call. Since this situation is
difficult, due to the fact that two Board members were part of the Church team that came to
Russia, we ask that a neutral
facilitator(s) be at the meeting so that we can review the facts, let everybody
be heard and not get sidetracked in personal issues. Also since two of the
board members were part of the Church team in Russia, we request that we can
choose two elders who are not on the Board and were not part of the team to
also be there to witness the meeting. We feel it is important to try once again
to establish greater understanding about this situation, in deference to what
the Masters have taught us about overcoming ignorance. We believe it is your
duty as the highest governing body to hear us before further problems take
place. We do not deny that there
were inharmonious energies in our meeting with the Church representatives; it
was very difficult to be calm when we felt that so much was at stake and that
we were not being understood or respected. Everyone was inharmonious at some
point during the meeting. The meeting was merely the culmination of a situation
that has been developing for many years. We have tried many times to bring
understanding of our situation here in Russia to the staff members at
headquarters. We apologize for not coming to you much sooner with our concerns
and request for help. There must have been a
major misunderstanding between us for this to happen. So, we want to clear any
and all issues that are a problem. We want to answer any questions that you
have. We are not personally attached to our positions on the Board (in the past
2 years all of us have had a spell not on the Board), but we are passionate
about maintaining a constructive progression of the Brotherhood's work here. We
have always sought to keep the needs of the Russian-speaking Keepers of the
Flame at the forefront of our endeavors. Although the Headquarters
team has said that we were "not good leaders" we have tried hard here in Russia
to publish, practice and spread the Ascended Masters Teachings at the highest
possible standards. In these years, by the Grace of God, we have done these
things for the Lightbearers and the Masters: In 6 years, the Moscow
Keepers have translated 35 SU titles and sold about 700,000 copies. Many souls
who have read the books have been directed into becoming Keepers of the Flame
and/or joining a Study Group. Many souls have come to our teaching classes and listened to our
tapes of lectures and dictations. Many things that the Church leadership
expressed great admiration for in Tuapse, actually had its beginnings in the
Moscow Study Group. The Moscow Keepers have
sent between three to four thousand dollars every year, back to Ranch as
royalties. While there have always been difficulties harmonizing the needs
of American and Russian law, particularly as regards publishing, we have
always striven to act first and foremost on the basis of the cosmic honor
flame. Trust and goodwill have been the foundation of our co-operative
endeavors together. But the current requests for a complete investigation into
our publishing activities, based on American standards of law with little
regard to Russian legal requirements, is the biggest challenge to these
foundations that we have faced. In the past silence or contradiction have met
our letters to the Board and the Church leadership regarding Russian law. We
plead with you not to take this situation lightly, or to again respond to us
with silence. We do not understand how
it serves the Brotherhood's interest to wipe out almost 8 years of heartfelt
and at times dangerous work by the former Moscow Board by denying
licenses for our publishing house, banning our translated video and audio
lectures, Russian decree tapes and music. Keepers here have been informed
that they may not use any of the materials developed in Moscow that have
Ketino's voice on them. Years of work are being wiped out almost instantly and
what will replace it? How will the Keepers respond to this sudden change of
attitude by the Church leadership?
We have to ask the
question again. What have we done so wrong that would cause our removal, and
even more importantly, cause the splintering of a mighty united force that is
holding a great balance in Russia? This situation has already provoked
division amongst friends, amongst families and amongst Study Groups throughout
the Russian-speaking lands. People are beginning to lose faith in the
organization as they struggle to understand why this happening. And the
division is snowballing very quickly. But there are ways to
resolve this situation by addressing some key issues. We think it is not true,
that we were given fair warning of complaints about the Board and that our
Board did nothing to correct any alleged problems. We also ask, how did some Russian
Keepers know (and even announce) that we were being removed before the Church
representatives arrived? Was the removal of our Board done according to the
high standards set for our organization? Finally, in the
Russian-speaking countries, people are very strong and passionate about what is
important to them. To us, there is nothing more important than the cause of
spreading the Teachings of the Ascended Masters. We believe that you feel the
same way and can see beyond our personalities to the spirit within us. Please understand that we did not feel that a
fair and respectful meeting could have taken place with the Headquarters team.
Let us meet with you and the facilitator(s) so that we can explain why and
answer the concerns you have. The world is watching us.
Heaven is watching us. Let us take steps towards peace and resolution rather
than strife and division. There is still time and we have a world to save. Sincerely, The Former Board members
of the Moscow Study Group" The Board of Directors responded on September
17: "The board has had the opportunity to discuss your
request for a meeting, which we appreciate. The board feels your request,
however, is premature. Before we would consider meeting with you, we are
respectfully, yet urgently, requesting that you meet with our representatives
in Moscow to answer the serious questions that have been addressed to you.
Meeting with Kate and Tina to discuss these questions is the most important
next step toward resolution. They have delayed their departures from Moscow to
allow this to happen." September 18th meeting in Moscow. The former Board gladly responded
right away. We rented a place and three people from our side Ketino, Stuart
and Sergei K. (who was not the former Board member, but one of the core active
people in the Moscow Group) met with Kate, Tina and Benuard on September
18. Tina was leading the meeting. She
said that there are two main purposes for the meeting: 1) &nb
sp;
to
ask for the full financial report 2) &nb
sp;
to
request that our Group gives everything (including AV equipment, publishing
with it's books etc.) to the newly appointed Board. Tina read a list of complaints that
were coming to the Ranch from the Moscow group members about Ketino and the
Board (mainly about Ketino) since 2001. She refused to give the names of the
people, who voiced these complaints. The complaints were so ridiculous that
they caused a smile on Ketino's face. Tina asked why she is laughing? Ketino
wanted to answer the complaints right away and said that they are very easy to
answer. Tina stopped her and said that it is not the purpose of the meeting to
hear Ketino's response on these complaints and that they will send the list of
them in written form from the Ranch as soon as they will be finalized.
Kate said that the purposes of the
August 29 meeting was to discuss these concerns and to get the financial
report. Stuart said that the agenda that we have received for that meeting did
not say anything about these purposes and we were not informed about any
concerns before the meeting. Stuart read the agenda from the Linda's e-mail to
the Moscow Board (that you can read in the "EXPOSE THE TRUTH 1: History"
document) to prove his words. Ketino also asked that if the SU
team had these concerns during the time of the August 29 meeting, how could it
be that after staying in Moscow for an additional three weeks the list of concerns
is still not finalized and ready, so that we can answer them. Kate said that the Board members were
dismissed not because of the concerns, but because of the behavior on the
meeting and she believes that Ketino could easily answer the concerns.
Ketino asked why the leadership has
accused her publicly in many things, including financial transgressions,
without checking the facts. Kate and Tina said that it is not true and refused
to acknowledge such facts.
(That is why we later asked people to give the reports in written form about
the statements made by the SU team on the meetings in Moscow and during the SU
Classes in Tuapse and Kiev.) We were asked to give away all the belongings of the
Moscow Group and the publishing company. Stuart said that we would definitely
look at giving the items, that were given to the Group as a gift or bought on
donations from Group members, but what would be ultimately given is to be
determined by three entities the two officially registered companies and the
people in the Group. We explained that it is not up to the former Moscow Board
members to give over any assets, because these assets in reality belong to
the people of the Group and they need to decide what would happen
with their belongings. The Moscow Group leaders work with the people in
the Group and do not just make decisions without them. Stuart also asked what would satisfy
the Church leadership? Kate answered that they would be satisfied only if we
give everything, including publishing company and its
belongings. Ketino asked Kate what she thinks
would happen with some company, for example with TSL/CUT organization if in one
day the whole leadership and all employees would be changed? Could they
survive? Kate said that they already went from 600 people to 60 and many people
left. Ketino said that it did not happen in one day and some employees are
still there. She asked again what would happen if all the people would
be fired in one day? Kate responded that it is not a problem and there
will be just a transition period of learning for new people. Ketino pointed out that the former
Board members as well as the core active people working in the Group do their work
not for positions, or mantles, or money, but as a service to God and to the
Masters. She said that it is our sacred labor and our divine plan to
bring the Teachings of the Ascended Masters to Russia and Russian speaking
lands and that we are determined to fulfill this our divine plan. Kate
and Tina responded that it just shows how rebellious we are, if we plan to
continue to do what we were doing. We did not come to an agreement on
the issues we spoke about, but it did not seem to be the purpose of the
meeting, according to what Tina stated in the beginning. Another
request of the Moscow Board to meet with the Church Board. On September 20th the
Moscow Board wrote another letter to the Board of Directors: "Dear Board of
Directors, We would like to thank
you for the opportunity that we had to meet with your representatives, Tina and
Kate, in Moscow on September 18 to further clarify issues of concern. In our
minds, it was a constructive meeting that helped us understand some of the issues
that will need greater clarification so that a healthy resolution can be
obtained. It is our understanding
from the meeting, that you will send us a list of allegations against the
former board members, so that these can be responded to. We are eager to
further clarify these issues. We believe that the
allegations that Tina and Kate summarized to us can easily be answered, however
they told us that these allegations are still being compiled and the list will
be delivered at a later date. We feel it is important that we have the
complete list of allegations so that we may promptly and properly respond to
each and every one. Now that we have met with
the Church's representatives again as requested, we would like to reiterate our
request to meet with the entire Church Board. We hope to hear from the Board at
the earliest possible opportunity as we feel that there are still many
misunderstandings, and we wish to clear them up. The current impact on the
work for the Masters in Russia is severe and continuing, and we would very much
like to speak with the Church Board about these impacts, in order to find ways
to resolve the issues. We feel we are all responsible for relieving the burdens
that these misunderstandings have placed upon the lightbearers of the
Russian-speaking lands. Sincerely, Stuart M, Ketino L, Margarita D, Sergey S,
Nina K (former Moscow Study Group board
members)" Note, that to this day we have still not received the
list of allegations against the former Board members. October
2 informal non-business Elder's meeting. In September there were a few requests from the Elders
to have a hearing in the Elder's meeting about the events that took place in
Russia. In response to these requests the Board of Directors called an informal
non-business Elder's meeting on October 2 regarding Russia. It was a two-hour
telephone meeting, where every Elder had an opportunity to ask one question
timed to 1 minute with a suggestion of who might answer the question. The
Elders, who were a part of the SU team Kate, Tina, Neroli and Linda on one
side or Ketino, who represented the Moscow Board's side, had to answer the
questions with a time limit of 3 minutes. Here is a short comment from Ketino on that
meeting: "The Board members tended not to address the questions to me, as if
they did not want to hear the other side of the story. They directed their
questions to the SU team, who repeated the statements, that were already
publicly reported. Right on the meeting I said that there are many incorrect
statements made by the leadership publicly, as well as during this meeting, but
nobody asked me to correct these statements. The format of the meeting did
not allow the Elders to hear the answers on each question from both sides and
therefore to clear any misunderstandings". Moscow Keepers are denied registration for the Harvest
conference. The time
of the Harvest conference was approaching. The Church leaders fulfilled
their promise and did not allow the Keepers from our group to register for the
conference. For example, Marina A., who had more than $200US on her
account, sent to Customer Service a request to register her for the conference.
On October 10, about ten days later, she finally received a response from
Joanne Boeckman: "Leadership has instructed me to inform you that we will
not be registering you for this Harvest conference broadcast Marina, we
encourage you to participate in this conference broadcast at the event venue
sponsored by the officially-recognized and licensed Moscow Study Group".
Ketino asked to register herself for the conference as
an Elder, but was denied the registration, though other Elders got the
registration for free for this and previous conferences. We are wondering, if there is the
rule that says that Keepers of the Flame or a group of people would not be
allowed to participate in the conference if they do not attend the events of
the official Study Group in their area or just want to participate in the
conference at home? The Russian Keepers, including those, who came to our
Group from the other cities felt that they are not welcomed by the Ranch to
their events. They were confused whether the quarterly conferences are
solely Church events, where only the communicants are welcome, or if these
events are for the KOF and lightbearers to participate in, even though they are
not affiliated with or a member of the Church. We ask you, our brothers and sisters in America and the
world: do you need another one hundred people faithfully decreeing with you
during the conference? The Moscow Group had two spiritual initiatives in
October and November. Code of Conduct. On October 4, on the Saint Germain service, which was
also El Morya's day we asked El Morya to become the Guru-sponsor of our
Moscow Study Group of the Keepers of the Flame. We followed the example of
the New York Teaching Center and signed the individual pledges to uphold the
Code of Conduct given by El Morya Khan. More than 50 people signed the
individual pledges, as well as the Group Petition to El Morya. We
invited also El Morya to become the irremovable member of our Board. We
know that following our example some other groups and Keepers in Russia and
Ukraine also pledged to follow the Code of Conduct. The 24-hour tag for Mother is reestablished! The other initiative was concerning
the tag for Mother. Russian Keepers were always making many calls for Mother,
but we did not participate in the tag for Mother. We were actually surprised,
when we went to the corresponding site on the internet and saw how poor was the
situation. There were even many zeros in the table. That means that not even
one person was decreeing for Mother during that hour. The Keepers in the Moscow
Group and many other Groups from Russian speaking countries, to whom we wrote
letters about the tag, gave their pledges to do decrees for Mother at a certain
time of the week. As a result, there are no zeros any more in the tag table,
that means that Mother finally has a 24-hour tag reestablished and more than
70% of this round the clock tag is sustained now by Russian-speaking Keepers.
The big majority of the hours there are two, three and more people decreeing
and recently we got the first hour, where 12 people are decreeing for Mother in
different parts of the World. The
seeds of confusion.
While reading about all these Victories, one can think that all is fine in the
Russian speaking KOF community. The Moscow Group as the biggest and strongest
is probably doing better than the other groups, that are much smaller and
weaker. Thus the division and destruction is practically deadly for them. The
Church leaders sowed seeds of confusion in people's minds, as the people
cannot understand how it could be that 1
those,
who were good for so many years became bad in one day, 2
the
materials, that were recommended (decree tapes, lectures on video, audio) and
were good for many years became bad in one day, 3
the
events (conferences, Classes) that were good for many years are not recommended
to be attended any more, 4
the
Group that was the example that the people followed in order to form groups in
their cities and countries became bad in one day, 5
the
people who served them for many years and whom they loved are not good any more
and they have to stop meeting and communicating with them, if they want to
further be under the sponsorship of the Masters. All of this is causing schisms in people's minds and the
loss of faith in our organization and in the Teachings themselves: for many
years the Moscow group was considered a very successful and healthy group,
suddenly it became the most "unhealthy" group and regional center. What do you
think that such a dramatic change does to people's perspective of the
Teachings? Ultimately the Ascended Masters are losing their potential chelas,
who were meant to find the Teachings, to hold the balance for the Eastern
hemisphere and to follow the Path of the ascension. We do not think that God
is happy with such a results of the trip of the SU team to Russia. The
last letter to the Church Board.
The former Moscow Board sent its last letter to the Church Board on November18.
Here is this letter, which request also remained unanswered. "Dear
Board of Directors, We received the three requests that you set as a prerequisite
to meeting and speaking with us. We believe that if you would hear our story
you would change your mind about your requests, as you would understand "why"
we resist so much in fulfilling these requests and "why" it would be actually
pointless to speak with us after the three requests are fulfilled. We ask you once again to speak with us and hear our
story before you take the actions that lead to further destruction of
the body of lightbearers in Russia. The
former Board of the Moscow Study Group" "LET MY PEOPLE GO!" This is the request to
the Church leadership. "LET MY PEOPLE GO!" In the name of El Morya
we request you stop the persecution of the Keepers of the Flame in Moscow and
Russian speaking lands. "LET MY PEOPLE GO!" We request you allow us
to study and practice the Teachings of the Ascended Masters individually and in
the groups that we form by our free will and under the laws of the country we
live in. "LET MY PEOPLE GO!" We request you allow us
to continue publishing the Teachings of the Ascended Masters in Russian and
bring them to the Russian speaking lands. With
the Cosmic Christ and in the name of our beloved Guru, El Morya and His
